You're right, Pottz.  Most people have no idea how many items are recalled . . . until it's too late to do anything about it.  I realize fine woodworkers don't use framing nailers for their craft, but most of us also build our own homes, etc. and might use framing nailers.  I only list tool-related items here, but dozens of items are recalled monthly, mostly related to children (toys, clothing, cribs, etc.).
